Hacking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2001-02-09 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi Friends,
 
I need some information on hacking which is surely to gain knowledge and secure 
my corporate n/w. My office has Cisco 3600 Router for internet connaction. 
 
1. How can someone hack the Router.
2. If internet uses is trying to hack webserver using a hacking tool which is 
using port 80, how the administrator can block this action still allowing the 
trusted users to access the webserver.
 
Thanks and Regards

Multiple ISP Leased Line [7:5536]

2001-05-23 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi friends,

WEBSEVER--FIREWALL---(E0)ROUTER1(S0)-(S0)ROUTER2(ISP1)--INTERNET
 |
 |
(S1)-(S0)ROUTER3(ISP2)--INTERNET

I have Webserver which is NATed with the Valid IP from ISP1 and has DNS 
entry at the ISP1 site.

If the user is trying to access the webserver from the net, he will goto 
ISP1 and from there he will reach the webserver.

If the Link btn ISP1 and ROUTER1(S0) goes down, how the user will access the 
websrever from the net. I know I cannot have multiple DNS entry for the same 
hostname even with multiple ISP.

My objective is the User should still access the net through redundant ISP 
link.

Is there any solution for this.

regards
imran

IP Multicast Configuration [7:7114]

2001-06-04 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi Friends

I have 2  checkpoint Firewalls configured for high availability and load 
balancing mode. I need to configure the IP Multicast on both the Internal 
and external interfaces of both firewall.

I have configured the common virtual IP on both the external and internal 
I/Fs. I am using 2900 XL series switch with 12.0(5)XU for connecting both 
the internal and external I/Fs of the firewall.  I need to configure all 
these 4 interface for multicast grouping. So if there is traffic flow across 
the FW then the traffic should be forwarded to both the I/Fs.

What I need to do to configure IP multicast on the Switch. I think CGMP is 
by default enabled. Please give me some guidance.

regards
imran

Cisco Router Integration with Ace Server for SecurID [7:33671]

2002-01-30 Thread imran obaidullah

hi,

I have cisco 2621 with IOS (Firewall, Plus features and 56-bit IPSec 
encryption) feature set. I have client to site VPN established by the remote 
users with this VPN router. The users should have an external authentication 
using secure id.

I tried configuring the ace server to work as an radius server and 
integrating directly with checkpoint firewall and this setup works fine

I want to integrate the same ace server to work with the above router. I had 
added the normal aaa commands but the users are not asked for any 
authentication and they can access the local network after establishng the 
VPN.

Can anyone give me sample config on intergrating the radius server with the 
router.

2000-07-16 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi,

Is it possible to connect the PABX to the 7513 which has got 2 port T1/E1 
high capacity digital port adapter. Is that you have anything like analog 
PABX and digital PABX. How many voice channels does this card will support. 
I could not get this details from cisco site, Please give me some details 
regrading the physical connection btn the PABX and 7500. Iam using 2600 
routers with FXO at branch offices.

Thanks

ping-'request timeout porblem'

2000-05-22 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi,

I have cisco 2900XL on which NT server & clients are connected there. I have 
a hub connected to that switch also. when I try to ping the Ntserver from 
the clients using the command ping x.x.x.x -t, it will ping contimously but 
inbetween it will give a message called ' REQUEST TIMED OUT' and again it 
will start pinging and after some n no of times I will get that message 
again. I tried setting port fast for the port where server is connected but 
no use.

If I connect my server to the hub and ping the server from the client, I 
won't get that message.

can some body help on this?

network troubleshooting

2000-06-01 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi,

I have a network of around 20 macs connected to the hub and all accessing  
the internet through a single internet box which is ip based. I have 
replaced the hub with catalyst 3500 and when I connect the mac to the switch 
the led on the port is showing orange colour and then I made the all the 
port to full duplex, speed 100 then the switch started working.

I think the nic in mac is not auto negotiating with switch port. But the 
users are complaining that the network is very slow and internet access 
speed also has come down.

I really could not diagnoise the problem because the switch should give 
better performance than hub. Is there any troubleshooting procedues through 
which I can find out the problem. is there any software on the net which 
will show me the bottleneck. If any body has got information, please send it 
to me.

RE: Network Troubleshooting

2000-06-01 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi,

Thanks for your information.

The server and the clients in the 1st floor are on the switcha and there is 
a uplink which connects the 2nd floor. But to the surprise the people in 2nd 
floor are not complaining onlt the clients in the 1st floor started 
complaining as soon as I changed them from hub to switch .I tried enabling 
port fast for all the ports except uplink and still they  have same problem. 
Sometimes they can see their neighbour and after few secs you can't see 
anyone through NN. Know all ports led is howing green colour but when I try 
it to keep to the auto it completely disable or permanently it shows orange. 
The NICs are set to auto mode for both the duplex and speed modes.

RE: Network Troubleshooting

2000-06-05 Thread imran obaidullah

Hi,

Thanks all for your infos. I did a search through a appletalk website and I 
found some thing strange information. The website is

http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n30922.

It says that when the spanning tree protocol is enabled on an switch port to 
which a mac system is directly attached the system may be unable to use 
appletalk services.

Issues observed range from no AppleTalk services, local (to this specific 
network) AppleTalk services, degraded performance, and intermittent network 
services.

If the Spanning Tree protocol is enabled on the port to which a Macintosh 
system is attached packets necessary for AppleTalk address assignment and 
network discovery can be dropped by the switch. This causes the Macintosh to 
acquire invalid or incomplete network information resulting in the behavior 
discussed above. Fortunately there are some things you can do to resolve the 
issue.

But the website also says that the TCP/ip services are not effected.

Anyway, I tried disabling STP and kept all the ports to auto mode in the 
switch, to the surprise all the mac sys started negotiating and they are 
running at full duplex and 100 mbps now and their is no complaint from the 
users from past 2 days.

I don't know whether the problem was really beacuse of STP or something 
else, I could not any R&D as users are online now.

Thanks

imrna

PIX vs CheckPoint

2001-01-12 Thread Imran Obaidullah M

Hi friends,

I have few basic questions,

1. If I can implement NAT and Access policy on normal router which has 2
ethernet interfaces then how PIX improves the perfomance as an dedicated
Firewall(If Iam not implemeting VPN).

2 Which is the best firewall and more reliable. What are the perfomance
difference between the PIX and CheckPoint.

Please send me the details
